LD - the Royal Mail app yesterday sent me a text saying my parcel would be delivered by 7:30pm yesterday but it wasn’t and the tracking link shows no update.

I went for a run and finally christened my new daps that I bought in August. :) Winter wear came out but by the end I was roasting in the sun. What a sparkling day! :)

All other plans for today binned so I can go for a walk in the Forest with friends this afternoon. :)

Afternoon all!

It's been a busy morning and I'm not keeping up.
Beautiful day out there though and the frost was so pretty as the sun rose. Will be run/walking at 1 pm.
It feels as though it should be Thursday for some reason - hey ho!
Happy Wednesday people xx

I have what now looks like a very tenuous race planned for 6th December - The Run that Stole Christmas (marathon). Oh well, might as well be optimistic.

Ran 3 miles again at lunchtime. If I’m not careful this might turn into a habit.

Went without my watch today, chose some good upbeat music and wore my NDW50 T-shirt. Each of these things contributed to a positive experience.

About This Thread

Maintained by Serendippily
Welcome to the 700 miles in 2020 thread, everybody welcome. The thread motto is:
'700 miles is neither necessary nor sufficient'

At normal times: All you have to do is run about 1.91 miles per day or 13.46 miles per week or 58.33 miles per month and take a picture when you get to 700 miles. Extra points for bins :-) And if you go under or over 700 miles nobody will mind.

Join in the chat on the friendliest thread around - all things discussed, sometimes even running.
